the law is defective for the purpose for which
ii was intended and should be either amended
or repealed and more effective law substi-
tuted for it. But no hasty or ill-advised
action should be taken. The law has been
beneficial in some localities, and the flood
gates of the traffic should not be thrown open
to deluge the county with rum and crime.

Grand Jury completed their laboIs Wednesday
aud adjourned. Their report to the court states
they were in session s days, examined 70 wit
nesses and found IA indictments. They visited
the county Jail and found it in as good condi-
ton as 1t is possible to be, the premises neat
aud well kept, rejecting credit upon Sheriff

ing sentence.
The Jury return thanks to the Judge, States
Attorney and officers of the court for their uni
form courtesy and readiness to assist them in
their labors. The report adds:
ave deem it but proper, in closing this re.
port, to refer TO what is known as the Local
Option law. The Grand Jury have taken inf
mite pains and made every effort to secure con-
victing evidence against alleged violators of this
law, and OF the 70 witnesses examined by the
Grand Jury 53 were on these cases alone. The
results OF their laoors are before you, and In the
light OF our experience during the past eight
days we should be derelict in our duty did we
fail to put on record the impossibility Of secur-
ing sufficient evidence against the alleged vio-
ton all over the county has brought the Local
Option law into disrepute and tends to destroy
that respect and awe which all laws should COM
mand; and recognizing the full import of our
testimony we would unanimously recommend
that the next Legislature make some change in
the Local Option law"

PROFITS OF sHEBP.-The profits Of sheep
raising are well illustrated by Mr.. VIM. Nun
nikhuysen, Of Thomas Run, who bought eleven
stock ewes. last August, at 50 per head He
kept them during the winter on little hay
with z bushels Of oats and 81 bushels of corn.
They now have 10 lambs, worth at least $50
apiece, or ESQ, and sheared an average of6I lbs
of wool each, amounting to M lbs, worth
about $1s. He has therefore realized from his
eleven ewes about s74. and the ewes are worth
as much as when he bought them. They had only
ordinary care and attention during the winter
These profits are not large but serve to show
what our farmers might do II they kept more
sheep and fewer dogs.

Opponents of woman suffrage generally
90 bach as far as Genesis for arguments,
but even then they do not go back far
enough. They stop with a true account
of the false relation into which man and
woman were thrown by sin, and quote this
account as tho original charter for man
kind: Thy desire shall be to thy husband
and he shall rule over thee" If they will
only 90 back to the creation of Adam and
| Eve. and to their natural aud divine rcla-
ton before the fall, they will fail to find a
sentence which hints at the subordination
of woman. Woman was not made in
mans image, neither was the dominion of
the world committed to him alone. On
the contrary, the record plainly says: "ln
the image of God created He him, male
and female created He them, and God said:
Let them have dominion over all the
earth.''
Now when Adam and Eve descended
from the sphere of spirituality to the ami
nal sphere, when they turned from a life
of faith to follow appetite, God SAID to
man that even nature should rebel against
his animal life: '"The earth shall bring
forth thorns and thistles." The history of
every drunkard and man of lust proves
that nature fights against HIM, and con-
firms the prophecy. And God said to wo-
man that in this lower animal life with
snan she would be constantly worsted:
''rhy desire shall be to thy husband and he
shall rule over thee" Six thousand years
of history have proved The terrible trnth of
this prophecy.
Aud yet this declaration of woman's
subordination-which does not belong at
all to the account of her original creation,
and which is directly due to sin, and which
we see sprang from the very NATURE Of the
two and from the sinful contest on which
they then entered-is quoted repeatedly as
the divine declaration of the ideal state of
the sexes, and We are constantly told that
any attempt to change it is a violation of
the divine constitution. AS well might
one declare that the thorns and briers
which God said the earth should bring
lOrth, on account oi man > Sill, are III eA-
preston of the ideal attitude of nature
toward man, and that we violate the divine
constitution in tilling the soil and improv-
ing its products.
Again, the whole effort of Christ was to
restore TO mankind what was lost il Adam.
"For as in Adam all die, so in Christ shall
all be made alive" IL Christianity is
completely to restore that which was lost
in Adam, how can it stop short of COM
pletely abolishing the subordination of
woman, which the Bible declares to be the
direct result of sin, and of leading us back
to that Edenic proclamation: "Let them
have dominion over all the earth ?'-Rer.
